Uncontrolled cell division is known as

• Cancer

• Mitosis

• Cytokinesis

• Growth

Chromatids are held together by a(an)

• Centriole

• Centromere

The phase of mitosis that is characterized by the lining up of chromosomes along the center of the cell is known as:

• Prophase

• Metaphase

• Anaphase

• Telophase
